Probably a move that could materialise if we secure promotion. Much like the whole Vydra situation - one of those things that hinges on the final six games.

Doesn't he dive about quite a bit? Haven't been overly impressed from what little I've seen of him, plus I can't see Granada being too happy at us taking one of their best players - the Pozzos aren't (rightfully) going to forget about Granada just because we're around.
http://www.udineseblog.it/articolo/La_corrida_di_Granada/Ighalo_verso_il_Watford/41/175106 "From Granada hear that Paron Pozzo would be willing to fulfill the dream of former Juventus Odion Ighalo allowing him to go and play in England. After one season at Udinese to Granada and 4, the Nigerian striker could finally land on earth Anglo-Saxon side Watford. This, according to 'ideal.es' would be the idea that Gianpaolo Pozzo could accomplish in the summer."
Don't ya just love how every agent says loads of clubs are clamouring for their player's signature. Did they all once work at Foxtons estate agents?
Similar stats to Allan Smart's for us yet he was pretty useful. He's 24 and lots of strikers have mediocre records at his age from sub appearances, or being played on the wing. Maybe he's been played in goal alot in which case this is pretty good. If he really is a 'fans favourite' then I'd not be against it, but not as the main replacement for Troyston.
Rumour has it the Granada coach thought he'd make a good wingback. If that's the case, at least Forestieri will have some competition for places.
I haven't seen a lot of Granada so maybe are resident Granada fan can tell us about him. Not a great scoring record but is he more of a winger than a striker. Fans favourite but then so is Doyley!
I suspect that any player "finding his first-team chances limited at Udinese" could potentially turn up at The Vic next season.
So we sell Troy for £10m and get Ighalo for nothing and presumably he plays for free as well Where has the money gone Pozzos??!!
Yeah but what about this finish? [video=youtube;YM5E_VIlVjQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YM5E_VIlVjQ[/video]
Something doesn't sit right with the Pozzos. Watford don't spend any money and have a squad full of Udinese players. How is it allowed? #watfordareeverythingthatswrongwithmodernfootballinenglandandthewholeworldthefeckers
Im not at all comfortable with our transfer income being used to buy players for other members of the Pozzo family It really is take, take, take, with these people
